June 2012 SAT II Biology

<p>there was one about the amount of energy going to the next level… that was 10% right?</p>

<p>Im looking at a 790 or very close 800 T.T Id be sad getting a 790 D: cuz that means im a question off -_-</p>

<p>Do you guys remember the drawing of the inside of a leaf? What were the answers? The one w/ the most photosynthetic activity was palisade mesophyll (the long, skinny cells), the one that allowed gases in and out was the stomata, and… last question was?</p>

<p>I may not retake it after all. I’ll see lol.</p>

<p>Yeah, so it’s 10% between each level, starting with the producers. The answer to that question was 0.1%. It started with the producers which is 10%. Then it moved on to the primary consumers, which is 1%. Then it ended with the secondary consumers, which is 0.1%.</p>

<p>thingschange, well 10% of energy is lost at every level, but the answer was .1% b/c it had 4 trophic levels.</p>

<p>The phloem thought it was A the huge bundle up cell beneath the palisade idk LOL</p>

<p>So palisade mesophyll was the most photosynthetic. Don’t remember which letter that was.</p>

<p>The stomata was E, which exchanges gases.</p>

<p>Then the last one was A, which showed a vein I think? It asked which structure carried substances through the plant. Idk… I know I picked A though.</p>

<p>Er, do you remember what the actual question was? I think I put that huge bundled up thing too. It was a “vein” that transports materials.
Ohwait yeah, it’s just vascular tissue.</p>

<p>YEA WOOT GOT THAT :smiley: i got the chemical signal wrong though -__-</p>

<p>Yeah haha, I was debating for so long over whether it was chemical or electrical. B/c I was like well, there are chemicals that’re being released from the presynaptic cell, but then those are neurotransmitters… which sound electrical… what exactly does an electrical impulse even look like… b/c electrical signals are transmitted from each node of Ranvier, but that’s based on potassium and sodium ions, which sound chemical… </p>

<p>Dunno, somehow ended up choosing chemical still.</p>

<p>Yea -___- and I think I might have gotten the bond one in M of the pic of amino acid. Was it like the bond 5?? Cuz there was an Oxygen molecule connected so that it would allow dehydration reaction so idk :/</p>

<p>Does anyone know if that question asked where the existing peptide bond was or where a new bond would form?</p>

<p>I got that trophic question wrong. I think I put .01% because when I was labeling the diagram to make sure I didn’t mess up, I put the sun as 10% LOL</p>

<p>And, the palisade mesophyll was B I believe.</p>

<p>for those discussing the curve, a while back on this thread we had found out when this test was administered in 2010, the curve was rather generous. I doubt CB would bother changing the curve and expect it to be the same.</p>

<p>Im pretty sure its the one that is connected to the Oxygen molecule because it asked where another peptide bond can be formed and all the other bonds wouldn’t allow that to happen. And the one with the O molecule would allow dehydration reaction so … yea I put 5</p>

<p>@Lanayru How many points is highly generous? If you took molecular, what would the minimum be to get an 800?</p>

<p>@daesung Yes, I think you’re right. It asked where a new peptide bond would form. I can’t believe I left that blank! :(</p>

<p>Would the chart that Txqueso posted be correct?</p>

<p>What chart??? Oh that one would be for 2011 maybe it would be 1 point down for 800 :smiley: im not quite sure though lol but it should be really close to the actualy scores</p>

<p>Does anybody remember the lab question about the net productivity in Ecology? Any one remember the questions/answers</p>

<p>When a peptide bond is formed, the OH in the carboxyl of one carbon combined with one of the H of the other’s amine group. So the new peptide bond would change the C-OH to a C-N bond where the N is the nitrogen of a new amino acid. Which makes the answer 5?</p>
